Jewellery sizing

A standard ear piercing at a piercing studio with a needle is usually a 14 gauge.

To get larger gauge piercings you should have a piercing professional stretch your piercings.

Jewelry gauges/sizes can vary between manufacturers. There is no universal regulation on companies to make a standard size in body jewellery. A large part of this is that some jewellery is made overseas and measured in millimetres. And in the USA jewellery is measured in inches/gauges. So many times jewellery can be anywhere from .5mm to 1mm different.
